Subject: [PATCH ipsec] xfrm: unbreak xfrm_sk_policy_lookup

if we succeed grabbing the refcount, then
  if (err && !xfrm_pol_hold_rcu)

will evaluate to false so this hits last else branch which then
sets policy to ERR_PTR(0).

Fixes: ae33786f73a7ce ("xfrm: policy: only use rcu in xfrm_sk_policy_lookup")
